Trial #3

[Deleted]

Here you will discuss the Third Murder.

[Daiwa Scarlet]

"Continuing from the other trial..."

"Asmis happened upon Colm fleeing the scene of Jay's murder and killed him while he was trying to figure out how to escape the basement. A bladed weapon was used as there are stab wounds."
"An odd point about these two cases is that there are no murder weapons at the scene. I suspect that Asmis had removed them. She obviously has little respect for the two victims with how she had decapitated them, so it isn't difficult to imagine that there had been more manipulation of the scene. She covered herself with lab coats to avoid getting blood on her clothing and ran around the area trailing blood to try and keep followers off her tracks."

"Sorry to disappoint you, Ushio, but the murder weapons are right here."

Verbal Bullet - Bloody Screwdriver
Verbal Bullet - Bloody Knife

"Simply put, Jay used a Kitchen Knife to wound Colm, while Colm killed Jay in a fight using a Screwdriver. Colm wandered around the basement looking for a way out until he finally collapsed and died. When I found Colm's body, I noticed the bloody writing next to it, and thought there might have been a chance Colm was not dead, but in fact pretending to be dead so he could get away with murder. So I decapitated him to make sure he was dead. I did the same with Jay, as you can see from the body."

"Of course, all of this was blatantly obvious to me as soon as I found Jay's body, so I thought I might was well make the trial a bit more difficult, and hid the murder weapons in the shoes of the victims. A pity you didn't find them, Ushio."

"As such, the theory I have to propose is this: The two victims killed each other, the murder weapons are the Bloody Knife originally found on Jay's body, and the Bloody Screwdriver originally found on Colm's body. Jay and Colm had a fight where Jay was killed by Colm and Colm survived. Colm was alive for a period after the murder where he wandered around and eventually died from blood loss. I had no involvement in the matter as I was the one who first found the bodies."
